In addition to the massive creepiness, it’s somehow perfect that a person who is an OBGYN can be so blinded by ideology that he forgets how bodies work, as if every menstruating person has a regular cycle, and knowing one detail about that cycle automatically reveals what medical procedures they’ve had.

My first thought after hearing this song was that Florence and the Machine had done it infinitely better a few years earlier with “Shake It Out.”

Well, Derek is pretty obvious, that’s why.. well, given it’s a Bad Janet situation, I don’t know why being around biting glass and saying his own name a lot causes serious problems, but I also find it somewhat conspicuous, however necessary for the sake of episodic comedy revolving around a main cast, that the humans…

Now that we know, I bet Bad Janet really enjoyed telling Jason about the Jaguars cutting Blake Bortles.

So it looks resolved but now I’m still a little bit suss about Michael. Like I believed it was him at the start even though it was making it seem like hhe was Vicky. But at the end when he has his while speech and is about to do his whole grand sacrifice that seems like exactly something Vicky would do to make them…

The further confusion of demon morality in this episode really makes me lean even more toward the theory that this is all a test for Michael, and now possibly all of the demon forces. It still hasn’t been adequately explained why the higher forces in this universe allowed a demon to side with the humans or how it…

I agree. I loved Janets, which had a similar vibe (and D’arcy was robbed of an emmy nomination!)

We don’t know if the Janet Babies have any ability to reboot. Based on the damage Chris’ tantrum did, they have the same general invulnerability that the demons-masquerading-as-human-souls did in the original “Good Place” (given that nobody died), but we haven’t seen them shut down and come back. Without the reboots,…

His face when Janet explained how she killed the horse was fantastic

The flashback the episode shows explains it, though. Real Janet goes onboard first, is marbleized by Fake Janet who changes her appearance and passes off the marble to Chris. Michael is boarding the train at that point to check on their status and doesn’t see the marbleization/pass off.

I picked that Janet wasn’t the real Janet when she said she’d never killed anyone before - as we know, she killed the four humans when she took them from Canada into her void. (Also I’m pretty sure there was another occasion with a demon, but the specifics escape me). But wow, that was a wild ride.

Well done to…

One other quick thing that struck me - right before Jason reveals his suspicions about Janet, he does this little pleading look at Eleanor and Michael, like, basically asking them “how are you not getting this?”  It really spoke to Jason’s confidence in himself (low) and his confidence in E and M (high).  I’m telling…

fantastic episode - this is the format this show really excels at, imo. the big twists and swerves are all fine and good, but everytime this show just locks its characters in a room together and does a bottle episode they hit it out of the damn park. I think my favourite half-hour of The Good Place is actually “Janet…

I hope Michael thought to bring Bad Janet’s “lie detector” with him.  That would come in handy in the Bad Place.

So Glen DID defect then, he just had the information wrong.

Derek apparently took time to reboot this time around.

I realize that Derek’s not around all the time, and he’s very... Derek all the time, but I feel like Derek should have noticed his ex/mommy was different.

I appreciate that even after using it to weed out Bad Janet, Jason seems to see Janet’s “not a girl” as a quirk or affectation rather than a statement of fact.

I NEEEEED to see that fire squid

It’s a credit to Hale that you missed “real” Eliot while Monster-Eliot still had a decent amount of screen time.
